Click to Purchase ($59.99)

If you collect Super Tuscans like Ornellaia, Tignanello & Sassicaia, this is a must buy!

What a wine today's offer is! "Carla 6" is a pure Sangiovese superstar hailing from a winery that Monica Larner calls "one of the most electric wineries in Italy"!!  

Sourced from a single-vineyard (called Vineyard Number 6) planted 25 years ago atop clay and schist soils in the heart of Chianti, "Carla" is a gorgeous and mesmerizing display of Tuscany's most noble variety.  The balance between fruit concentration, tannin and mineral backbone is something that all winemakers strive for, but few can truly achieve! Over the years it's grown to be one of the most compelling wines made in the region - and simply put, consumers simply cannot get enough of it! 

Considering the price point of its Tuscan contemporaries - wines that can easily reach the $150 mark and beyond - La Massa's Carla 6 is a bonafide bargain. Qualitatively it's on par with some of the best ever bottled! 

These two things should be compelling enough, but once you get this beauty in the glass you'll wish you doubled your order - trust us!!

"By appearances you would not guess that this is Sangiovese. The 2016 Carla 6 exudes sheer intensity, darkness and richness. From the fruity flavors of cherry and cassis to floral and earthy notes of rosebud and damp soil, this one's got it all, plus that tertiary note of natural rubber that I love. It is beauty in a dark and deep wine. Carla 6 hits it out of the park. Some 4,910 bottles were produced at La Massa's new winery built look like the inside of a Ferrari engine complete with rows of stainless steel tanks positioned like cylinders." - 97 Points Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"A tight and solid red with cherry and blackberry character and hints of black chocolate and wet earth. Some spices and flowers, as well. A solid and intense wine with super structure. Needs three or four years to soften. Try after 2021." - 96 Points James Suckling
